3.3.4.1
Default upon delivery
When the interface modules are inserted, they are preset with a data transmission rate of
100 Mbps and full duplex mode, and link monitoring is not activated for the fiber optic ports.
3.3.4.2
Functions
–
Line monitoring
According to standard IEEE 802.3, the switch monitors the connected fiber optic cables
for interrupts.
–
Far End Fault Detection indicates that the connection in the direction of the partner is
not OK (the partner does not indicate a link) and therefore at least one fiber within the
fiber optic cable is faulty or has not been assembled correctly.
NOTE:
Please observe the following information on the FL IF 2FX …-D Interface modules
Affected Interface modules:
FL IF 2FX SC-D, HW: 05,
FL IF 2FX SM SC-D, HW: 03,
FL IF 2FX ST-D, HW: 01,
The use of the above-named Interface modules with the specified hardware status is
restricted in the FL SWITCH MM HS modular managed switch (Order no.: 2832328) and
the FL MXT (2832331) extension stations.
It is only possible to operate one of the above-mentioned modules in the head station of
the switch and one each in an extension station. An FL SWITCH MMS can be operated
with two extension stations, i.e. a maximum of 3 FL IF 2FX …-D modules. All other IF
modules can be operated in any constellation.
Operation of the Interface module in FL SWITCH GHS …G/… Gigabit Modular Switches
is possible without restriction.
Interface modules with older hardware status as the above mentioned can be operated in
all modular switches.
Older replacement modules can be ordered according to revision. Please contact your
Phoenix Contact sales representative.
Hot plugging
When inserting and removing interface modules, you do
not
have to switch off the supply
voltage. The interface modules are detected automatically and logged to the network
management.
If the FL IF 2FX (SM) SC... interface is removed and another interface type is inserted in
its place, the ports are set to auto negotiation.
If a fiber optic interface module is inserted in a MMS that has already been parameterized,
the existing configuration remains active.
–
The data transmission rate is set to 100 Mbps
–
The duplex method is set to full duplex
If the module is removed, auto negotiation is enabled.
Ports that are not being used are considered cable interrupts. In addition, a fiber optic path
to a deactivated termination device is also considered a cable interrupt, as the connected
device cannot send a link test pulse because it is switched off.
